Comparison of Wedge Resection and Anatomical Lung Resection in Elderly Patients With Early‐Stage Nonsmall Cell Lung Cancer With Visceral Pleural Invasion: A Population‐Based Study
This study demonstrates that wedge resection is a viable surgical option for octogenarians with stage I NSCLC and VPI. Notably, the addition of lymph node dissection to wedge resection significantly enhances survival outcomes compared to wedge resection performed without lymph node dissection.
